Sometimes young stars try to grow up too fast. Sometimes older stars can't ditch the mini skirts. These are examples of each instance.

Can I Wear This?

Can I Wear This?

Whether it's someone like Kris Jenner (left) who just refuses to let her wardrobe mature like her age has or mom of four Heidi Klum (middle) who should cover up a little more, or Miley Cyrus (right), who can't find the balance between frumpy and risque, stars are all sorts of confused when it comes to how they think they should dress.

Kris Jenner

The Kardashian momager is a repeat offender when it comes to not dressing her age. Kris Jenner's outfits look like she shares a wardrobe with her daughter Kim Kardashian. It's probably time to for the grandmother to hang up the hip hugging animal prints and sheer pants. Click here for more pictures of Jenner from X17online.com.

Penelope Mitchell

"Zipper" cast member Penelope Mitchell outfit failed to impress at the premiere of her new film at the Sundace Film Festival in Utah. While it's nice to see the young actress dress in a modest fashion, this is not a good look for a 23-year-old.

Emma Stone's floral disaster

Stone looked matronly in a purple floral flock in New York City. The 25-year-old should ditch that look ASAP!

Britney

We're not sure what age is appropriate for Spears' getup. The singer stepped out wearing daily dukes and a bandana-like top. Click here for more pics of Spears from X17online.com.

Kourtney K

The pregnant reality star looked more like almost 2-year-old daughter Penelope in braids and overalls than a 35-year-old mother of two. Click here for more pictures of the Kardashian sister from X17online.com.

Carmen Electra

While there's no denying Electra looked electric in a hot pink number, but at 42, it might be time to retire the bandage dress. For more pictures of Electra, go to X17online.com.

Heidi Klum

The typically well-dressed Klum looked disheveled and way past her 40-years in overalls. Click here for more pictures of the model at X17online.com.

Courtney Stodden

The 19-year-old is known for her proactive outfits which are not appropriate for almost anyone, let alone a teenager. Where did C-Stod decide to wear this little black number? Church of course. She wrote on Instagram, "Church day #blonde #happy #sunday."

Brooklyn Decker

The usually sexy 27-year-old looks more like a shlumpy 47-year-old in an ill fitting capri double breasted pants suit. Click here for more pictures of the actress on X17online.com.

Victoria Beckham

Beckham may be a mom of four, but that doesn't mean she has to completely cover up. The former Spice Girl singer is known for her fashion sense but this outfit definitely doesn't earn her her usual spot on the best dressed list. For more pictures of Beckham, visit X17online.com.

Rihanna

What was she thinking? The 26-year-old singer looked cloer to 66 in her purple suit.

Shannen Doherty

We're pretty sure Doherty is past the age of Daisy Dukes. Sometimes more is more Shannen.

Kristen Stewart

Kristen Stewart

Cher circa 1990, is that you?

This one is as much about dressing your age as it is dressing your era. Kristen Stewart has never been exactly what one would call "fashion savvy" but this look is one of the strangest we've seen in a while. It's a fine mix of Cher and Tina Turner, when they were 40+ and still trying to look sexy.

Pippa Middleton

Fashionista Pippa may be losing her touch. She showed up to her book signing in London looking like her book was more about dressing for drafty rooms in her sister's palaces than it is about entertaining.

Christina Hendricks

Madonna

The star was born in 1958, there are no circumstances in which her donning a cheerleader outfit are okay. Neither Halloween nor theatrical performances make this look okay. She should stop shopping in her teen daughter's closet.

Raven Simone

The former Disney star recently shed some weight, which is probably what makes her think that this outfit is okay. We're not sure if she looks like a kid playing dress up or a 40-year-old exotic dancer.
